小作文：推荐信

Dear El,

It has been a long time since we had a chat last time. How have you been these days? Recently I watched a movie Braveheart on Netflix and thought you might love it as well. So I recommend this epic and historical movie to you.

The first reason is the protagonist William Wallace-a Scottish warrior-shows his perfect acting skills and real medieval life to the audiences. Second is that you are a big fan of history, so you will learn many historical backgrounds of conflicts between England and Scotland, which were fierce at that time. Last but not least, the film also advocates the spirit of freedom and the fight against unjust fate.

I hope you would enjoy the movie, and I am looking for your reply. Have a nice day!

Yours sincerely,

Li Ming

大作文：谈环境

There are two youngsters, in this drawing, sitting on a boat who chatter and smoke happily. Surprisingly, lots of fishes are floating on the river due to the garbage chucked by them. Still, the rowing guide unexpectedly ignores their misbehavior and turns a blind eye to their actions as if nothing happened.

The cartoonist intends to illustrate that human activities have impaired nature. Over recent years, the continually improving standard of living has enabled Chinese people to patronize the increasingly popular tourism, which contributes a lot to historical sites and help local governments develop significantly. Yet the side effects should raise our concerns in that over-tourism has also exerted irreversible damage to the fragile environment, and the situation will deteriorate because of inaction and indifference.

In my viewpoint, the environmental protection brooks no delay, considering the critically undermined nature. Importantly, we should leave a clean one to posterity, so everyone must take action right now to better the environment, and the government, too, needs to formulate and implement policies to restrict over-tourism. Only in these ways can we embrace a prosperous, progressive, and promising outlook.

考研高频单词讲解-1

本期写一篇考研高频单词的讲解，主要是从词根词缀出发写一点个人背单词的技巧和心得，或者是一些小的辨析之类的。词频的来源是这里。授人鱼不如授人以渔，先推荐两个个我常用的词根查询网站（全英+科学上网）： Etymonline Wiktionary 前期直接看可能难度较大，可以参考 http://www.dicts.cn/ 这个网站，逐渐熟悉后再慢慢适应英文版。话不多说，直接开始吧~~ 1. industrial industry的形容词，注意industry有勤奋的意思，而industrial没有【勤奋的】的意思，只有【工业的】的意思。Industry由 indu + stry组成，indu 由indo结尾变化而来（元音变化很常见，可以理解为a = e = i = o =u），意为 in或者within ， stry = stru = structure。综合起来就是在里面建造=》工业。 2. involve in（≈indo）+volve（旋转，拟声词，模仿旋转的声音） = 卷入，涉及。Volvo沃尔沃也是源自同一个词根，元音变化又用上啦，e 变成了 o。volve这个词根的同源词也很多，需要单开一节讲解。 3. moral 这个单词从词源比较难记，因为无法得出有效的记忆规律。所以多个同源单词一起记忆比较方便。 Demoralize 这个单词翻译考过，de = off 去掉，morale（士气），懂点词根很容易就能知道他的意思啦。比如LOL中被Ace（团灭）了就非常地demoralizing哈哈。如果每人拿到一个人头就叫做team ace，虽然通常都是adc（attack damage carry）, ap(ability power carry)拿人头。说到ace这个单词也很有趣，ace是扑克（poker）中最大的。有一种说法是，1789年法国大革命之后，平民获得了更多权力，于是最底层ace就变成最大的啦。如果各位有兴趣还可以学习扑克中的历史+英语， Jack , Queen , King 对应了不同的人物，其中黑桃q（queen of spades，spade是铲子）原型是雅典娜（Athena），还有很多有意思的人物，这里就不展开啦，有兴趣可以自己查阅以上超链接。 Morale 加e变名词，有道德的状态（concerning mor...

考研高频单词讲解-2

书接上回。上次讲了十个单词，其中包含了许多非常重要的词根，越往下讲词根的重复率会越大，所以词根方面的内容会变少，我尽量在其他的地方多补充点内容。 11.label 动词和名词的意思都有，动词就是标签化，比如label him a loser。此处的label用作贬义，也可以和中文一样当成中性词使用。例句： labeled the switches so as not to confuse them 这里的label可以替换为categorize或者tag。 12.detail De ‘off’ + tail ‘cut’ 意为切下来的东西 => 细节。 Tailor（裁缝）也是tail的衍生词，字面意思（literally）为’cutter’。 tailor还有作为动词的意思，也很常见，意为量身定做（裁缝干的事）。比如 This patch is tailored for Windows users. 这个补丁是为Windows用户定制的。 tailor换成cuntomize亦可。 13.event e’out，ex的变体（variant）’+ vent ’ come’ 出来的东西，通常指大事件。比如竞技体育的大型比赛就是一次event（Ti，s10，major…）这里的vent也是一个重要词根，作为来的意思非常多见，convene，convention，adventure，circumvent’绕过’（circum是圆的词根，circumcise（cise = cide，切）可以帮助大家很好的记忆这个词根，意思请大家自行查阅， warning : NSFW⚠）这里再分享一句个人很喜欢的亚历山大的名言我来，我见，我征服。 I came, I saw, I conquered. Veni, vidi, vici.(拉丁语) 这里的veni就是来，其他意思也是一一对应的。 Vidi就是看，衍生词visual，s，t，d互相变是正常操作，大家看过了就认识了。t和d是清浊辅音，s变t是因为发音相似，比如visual 和 virtual 的s和t的读音相似。 Vici是胜利，中国有个电竞俱乐部Vici gaming（VG）就取自该意。还有IG战队（Invictus Gaming）也是如此，In表否定，后面也是拉丁语（vic做词根，tus形容词后缀），可以理解为...

The Cultural Hotpot There is a hotpot standing in the middle of the picture, containing various kinds of food with different names such as swan lake, enlightenment, Confucianism, etc., as if all of them were mixing perfectly and harmoniously. The caption under the cartoon says: the cultural hot pot is both delicious and nutritious. The cartoon intends to illuminate that our culture is not an isolated island where folks only absorb things that they are familiar with. What we need to assimilate, however, is cultural features from different nations and various races. And by this means, the hotpot would be so delicious and nutritious that everyone in this society can relish what they have achieved eventually and can unconsciously affect each other afterward. In my viewpoint, diverse cultures enormously broaden ones’ horizons. In other words, whatever we are in touch with, it may provide a different way in which we see the world where there may be another treasure in an unnoticed corn...

与古典神话相关的词源

本期写一点关于古希腊罗马神话（Classical mythology）相关的词源故事，希望可以帮助大家更好地记住与之有关的单词。 1. Echo Echo 我们都知道是回声的意思。在希腊神话中，有个山岳仙女（Mountain nymph）也叫 Echo，她经常用美丽的声音，迷人的故事故意缠住好妒的赫拉（Hera，宙斯之妻），转移她的注意力，以便于宙斯（Zeus）可以趁机与其他仙女幽会。不料东窗事发，愤怒的赫拉让 Echo 失去了声音，作为惩罚。此后 Echo 只能重复别人所发出的声音，于是 Echo 一词进入英语之后就有了“回声”的意思。后来 Echo 遇到了 Narcissus（那耳喀索斯，又译作纳西瑟斯），他们俩一见钟情，可是因为 Echo 无法表达自己的爱意，她郁郁而终，最后只剩下声音回荡在山谷之中。 2. Narcissism Echo 喜欢的 Narcissus 正是 narcissism（自恋）的来源，他是个帅气到爱上自己的男子。传说他出生后，他的母亲向预言家提瑞西阿斯（Tiresias）询问自己儿子的命运。Tiresias说，Narcissus 只要不看到自己的脸，就能得长寿。因此，尽管 Narcissus 长大后成为全希腊最俊美的男子，他却从不知道自己长什么样子。 Narcissus 的美貌让全希腊的女性为之倾倒，但他对所有前来求爱的女人都无动于衷。被他拒绝的女子们都要求复仇女神 Nemesis（涅墨西斯）惩罚那耳喀索斯。Nemesis 同意了她们的请求。一次打猎归来时，他在池水中看见了自己俊美的脸，于是爱上了自己的倒影，无法从池塘边离开，终于憔悴而死。这样就实现了 Tiresias 在他幼年时所作出的预言。之后 Narcissus 也就成了自恋的代名词。 3. Nemesis Nemesis 是复仇女神，该词直接被用在了英语中，意为天谴，报应或者应得的失败。因为复仇女神是一位比较正面的形象，所以 nemesis 也是偏正面的，通常是坏人所得的惩罚。其中 Nem 作为 nemesis 的词根，意思是 distribute, assign（按照每个人的行为分配结果，好人好报，恶人恶报）。还有其他单词也源自于 nem，表示管理（arrange），分配（distribute）： autonomy anomy，a 表否定，不管理...

小作文：推荐信 Dear friends, A reading session is scheduled to be held on this Sunday, so I am writing this letter to recommend my favourite book. The book is Antifragile , which I have read several times recently, and its central idea is that, in the face of adversities, human beings need to be antifragile, instead of being robust, which is “fragile” as well. To illustrate, the individual may be fragile and delicate and wants to be solid-rock, but he also can be increasingly robust as the environment deteriorates. Furthermore, the author Taleb provides some useful suggestions to react to incidents swiftly. I am sure the book will be practical when dealing with matters in real life. I hope each of you will read well and enjoy it. See you on Sunday! Yours sincerely, Li Ming 大作文：谈手机 It has been an ordinary scene happening in our daily life that, as seen in the cartoon, four youngsters quietly sit around the table.

词根“duct”相关单词讲解

本期讲解词根 duct ，Duct在这篇博文中提到过，意为领导、引导（‘to lead’)，duct的原始词根为deuk（结尾辅音变化，不影响单词意思），本文的以下单词皆与该意思有关，不需要全部记忆，根据个人精力进行学习。 1. Duke 公爵。duke由deuk演化而来，两个词长得差不多，读音也差不多。公爵是领导一个地区的人，一个领导者。 Duchess，公爵夫人。 Duchy，duke的东西 => 公国。 Archduke，arch（大）+ duke，奥地利大公，位置比公爵高，低于国王。 Grand duke，也是大公，欧洲大陆国家常见，如：卢森堡大公，托斯卡纳大公。 Ducat，达克特，一种货币。字面意为：公爵的货币。 Ducal，duc + al，公爵的再补充一下欧洲贵族的英语，爵位按排序递减：侯爵，Marquis。Marq = mark，标记。标记在这里象征着领地的边界被mark了，侯爵负责管理标记内部的领地。伯爵，count（欧洲大陆国家使用），earl（英国）。子爵，viscount。vis (‘vice’) + count，vis可能大家不熟悉，看到Vice President，应该就知道了。vice意为代替（‘instead of, deputy’），子爵是在伯爵之下的爵位，所以加上了vis。男爵，baron，玩LOL的同学肯定知道。 2. Duct 导管，管道（如图所示），领导、引领水、石油和气到目标地点的东西。 Ductile，延展性。容易被引领的东西（easy to be led）=> 延展性。 Duction，引领。 3. Abduce 使肢体外展。away + lead，领出去。该单词已基本不用（ obsolete）。 Abduct，非常容易弄混，而且算常见，意为拐走（把别人的肢体领走）。 Abductor，诱拐者。 Abduction，诱拐的名词。该单词不包括卖这个意思，根据词根，不难理解其原因。 Adduct，还有一个意思，与abduce类似，是肢体外延（如图）。 Circumduct，肢体环回（如图）。 4. Adduce 意为引证。把其他地方的语言领过来。英英释义为： To give reasons why you think something is true. 5. Conduce 导致，有助于。 ...
